Blackwood Steel Corporation was a steel and shipbuilding company before its reorganization into Blackwood Heavy Industries. The company can be traced back to its original founding of the Blackwood Iron Works company in 1844.

Its rise to a chief producer of Iron and Weapon-smithing during the civil war had aided it to become a prime producer for the Union and the United States of America.

Blackwood Steel Corporation became a subsidiary of Blackwood Heavy Industries in 1902.
